Amazon defeated the union vote. What happens next?
CNN
Amazon has soundly defeated a landmark union drive that would have established the company's first US union, but labor advocates are hopeful that the high-profile fight will nonetheless be successful in spurring support for broader change.
In the final vote tally, 1,798 workers at the Bessemer, Alabama, warehouse voted against unionization while 738 voted to unionize. The union behind the drive said that it intends to file objections and unfair labor practice charges with the labor board, but it has also said that Amazon took advantage of a broken system, one that is stacked in the favor of employers.More Related News
